Kindred Spirit Elephant Foundation is a registered NGO in Thailand. We opened our doors in May 2016 with the aim of bringing as many elephants as possible back to their natural habitat whilst working on educating both the public and locals about elephant treatment and trying to combat illegal trade. We at Kindred Spirit Elephant Sanctuary are passionate about elephant welfare and want our elephants to live their lives as naturally and with as little human influence as possible. We do not promote elephant rides or any form of elephant performance.
We also work very closely with the community of our village where the sanctuary is set. We provide an income for our community by creating homestays for the volunteers to stay, renting land, and creating jobs. We give back to our wonderful community by teaching English at the school, to the homestays and to the mahouts.
